Getting ready for Black Friday

Black Friday is coming up in another 4 days. That's the day after Thanksgiving where a lot of merchants are cutting price to attract customers to their store. They have early bird specials, door busters specials and more.

This year, I will be heading out, braving the crowd on this day. I have some items I need to get for myself and the family and the best price and day to get them will be on Black Friday.

What you need to do is plan ahead. Sit down on Thanksgiving day with the newspaper and sales flyers in front of you. Write down your list of stores with items you need to get. Visit the store with the longest list first. If you could, get someone to go with you as two persons are better than one.

On that day itself, wake up early. Have some breakfast. Layer up because it is going to be cold out there. Get a cup of coffee/hot chocolate while waiting in the line for the store to open. Go in and try your best to get all the items on your list. You may not be able to get all of them but if you are lucky you may. So good luck to everyone shopping on Black Friday.
